Totally random

November 9th, 2006

My appearance online has been sporadic this week, what with Election Day and all. You would think I'd be here gloating, but I'm not going to... because democrats are not off the hook.

We worked hard.. we gave money, we volunteered, made phone calls and urged our family and friends to vote. We got out the vote. And now its time to crack the whip and fix our country. As Peter Parker's Uncle Ben says, "Remember, with great power comes great responsibility".

With that said.. of course I haven't been able to wipe the grin off my face.

More total randomness.. LOST sucked last night. Seriously. They billed it as this huuuuge amazing show, with an incredible cliff-hanger. Just more questions (like who the hell is Jacob and why does he have a list? And why did Ben ask if Alex asked about him? When Juliette said they took Alex "home".. what the hell does that mean?) I'll probably come back in February, however I'll be doing so grudgingly. They need to answer some freaking questions already. Or better yet perhaps they should try to get some of the Weeds writers on staff. Apparently the LOST writers are losing their edge.

OH.. and a very belated THANK YOU to my Secret Pal. My birthday was this past Saturday and she sent me an amazon.com gift certificate. I'm soooo not sure what to blow it on. I'm heading into a history/politics phase, and have been craving the works of Thomas Jefferson, and Thomas Paine... I just may spend it on some of that!

Around a year ago on this day..

    Hi Carla,
    Happy Belated Birthday! I now remember you have a November birthday, and what a lovely present you received! Democratic majorities in the House AND Senate! In addition to the tune Happy Birthday (cha cha cha), I am also humming….”na na na na; na na na na; hey hey hey - good bye!” and am thinking that perhaps this is a signal of better things ahead in 2007. We aren’t off the hook yet, you are right - but here is hoping! Hope you had a great birthday. Love, Nan

    I’m lost watching Lost. Indeed they need to wrap up some loose ends.

    Yeah, I’ve thought it might be carpal. That is in your wrists, though, and my wrists have NO pain, just the joints in my fingers (and also my knees and ankles). Also, I can’t type with an ergo keyboard - I hate them. haha. Thanks for the suggestions, though.

    …hey, your secret pal *just now* got around to taking a peek at your blog this week - talk about behind, sheesh. That would be me. (and glad you like your present, dear lady)

    Happy dancing to the tune of a Democratic Congress,
